That's a wrap on this year's Summer Grip Games 2025.
Overview - Without a doubt the hottest event we've had at the Grip Shed and what certainly felt like the hottest day of the year so far.
We took to the outside with a smaller than usual field at our Summer Grip Games (sorry to all those that missed out due to the event disappearing).
But it was an amazing day with an exceptional level of competition, lots of new records, and a few new faces.
Performance - After the great level of competition yesterday I thought It would only be fitting to mention a few people. Rob Davenport & Karl Atkins continue to push each other at every event and have both seen great improvement this year, Karl managed to put a big lift in on the V Bar to seal enough points to finish above Rob this time.
We saw the emergence of a new Mens Open competitor Daniel Kidd. Over the last year this category has lost a lot of It's main competitors leaving Tiny to demolish every record in sight, hopefully Daniel can look to continue his training and become another force in the Mens Open.
Chris Rice Jones came in with another excellent performance and I'm sure he will be looking to take the crown in next years 105kg Grip League.
Grip Yeti - The highlight for me being Luca Zehnter @grip.yeti taking the trip over from Germany to compete, of course he weighed in the 83kg category. He showed excellent technique on all events whilst showing a high level of competition maturity even though this was his first one. Certainly one to look out for in the future.
New Event - We also saw the introduction of a new event that was a popular request at the start of the year, the Cliffhanger Hold. We did have to iron out a few technicalities with the rules but I think the best way to do this is just getting stuck in and testing things out. It should be an all inclusive effort to fine tune the rules and we got there in the end.
Thank You - To everyone that came and gave it their all it was a really fun day, of course we forgot to take a group shot at the end (as always) but I'll see you all at the Grip League Final soon!
